Explanation:

Answer:

(21) Reasons for Britain's rejection of Wilson's peace overtures in 1916 include a belief that a decisive military victory was still possible and concerns that a premature peace would not secure long - term British interests.
(22) Wilson's "new world order" was a vision that included principles such as national self - determination, open diplomacy, free trade, and the establishment of a League of Nations to maintain international peace and security.
(23) Prominent Americans who supported Wilson's efforts included figures like Colonel Edward M. House.
(24) Wilson's campaign slogan in 1916 was "He kept us out of war."
(25) By "peace without victory," Wilson meant a peace settlement that did not impose harsh terms on the defeated nations, aiming for a more just and lasting peace based on mutual understanding rather than humiliation.
(26) Wilson's principles for a lasting peace included open covenants of peace openly arrived at, freedom of the seas, the removal of economic barriers, an adjustment of colonial claims with due regard to the interests of the colonial populations, and the establishment of a general association of nations.
(27) The Zimmermann Telegram was a secret diplomatic communication from the German Foreign Secretary Arthur Zimmermann to the German ambassador in Mexico. It proposed a military alliance between Germany and Mexico if the United States entered World War I, with the promise of helping Mexico regain territory lost to the U.S. (Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona).
(28) In March 1917, the February Revolution occurred in Russia, which overthrew the Tsarist regime and established a Provisional Government.
(29) Wilson's justification for entering the war included German unrestricted submarine warfare against American ships and the Zimmermann Telegram.
(30) Naval tactics used to protect merchant ships bound for the Allied Powers included the convoy system, where merchant ships traveled in groups escorted by warships.
(31) New technology that allowed ships to find U - boats included sonar (ASDIC in British usage).
(32) Lenin pulled Russia out of the war because he believed the war was a capitalist - imperialist conflict, and Russia needed to focus on the domestic socialist revolution and end the suffering of the Russian people.
(33) Russia's withdrawal hurt the Allies by allowing Germany to transfer troops from the Eastern Front to the Western Front, increasing the pressure on Allied forces there.
(34) The name of the American Army in France was the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF).
